Quick Transmigration: Reversing the Life of a Cannon Fodder Female Supporting Character

Chang Dongning was taken aback. She had heard about high radiation for a long time, so this sudden change in wording was quite surprising.

But which one?

Chang Dongning looked in the direction of her scissors and saw several kinds of plants. She squatted down to observe them carefully and saw a new wound on a long blade of grass.

"Drip, low radiation, edible."

I checked it again with my watch. "Beep, low radiation, snake grass, edible."

Chang Dongning tapped his watch to look at the detailed description of snake grass. It can be used in medicine, is very rare, and is often found near poisonous snakes.

"Damn it!" Chang Dongning's expression changed. He didn't dare to pull it, so he cut off the part he could see and put it into his space. He looked around warily and quickly ran towards the meeting point.

Fortunately, no poisonous snakes were seen until the road was visible.

From an angle she didn't see, shortly after she left, a triangular snake head poked out, sniffed the air with curiosity, licked a broken blade of grass, and didn't chase after it.

It was still early, so she cut some grass by the roadside and stuffed it tightly into her basket. There were many people like her, all of whom had spent points to take a bus to collect the grass. Naturally, they would try to bring back as much as possible. Cutting grass could not only cover up their real harvest, but they could also dry it and use it as firewood when they got back.

If the shuttle bus hadn't been restricted from carrying too much, these people would have covered themselves entirely with it.

Actually, the Chang family was out of firewood, but starting yesterday, Chang Dongning turned on the gas that hadn't been used for a long time, so the need for firewood wasn't as great, but the need for credits was greater.

Back in the safe zone, she didn't go straight home, but went to the trading hall first, where Zhang Hao, who had been informed in advance, was waiting for her in the small meeting room.

"Is there something new to hand over?" His eyes were eager.

Chang Dongning met his eager gaze, her lips twitching slightly: "Where would there be so many new species? That's why I came here."

Chang Dongning rummaged through the grass in the basket and pulled out the snake-shaped grass.

"Snake-shaped grass?" Zhang Hao's expression changed. "Where did you find it?"

Near the safe zone, the genetic warriors would patrol regularly to eliminate dangerous plants and animals. However, snakes are good at hiding, especially those attracted by snake-shaped grass. They are all small snakes with high venom, and often what they find is a large snake nest.

Most importantly, the mutated snakes are even more ferocious, with venom seeping from their skin. Many plants cannot withstand this and will be poisoned to death. Humans cannot eat the plants that can withstand the venom.

Chang Dongning sent him a coordinate: "I went here to collect samples today. I came out of the colorful berry forest and walked through the weeds next to the giant cabbage. I didn't pay attention at the time, so I just randomly tested it with the testing scissors. It has low radiation."

"Aren't there any snakes around?"

"I didn't dare linger. I hurriedly cut off the section in front of me, stuffed it into the weeds, and ran away. Anyway, I didn't see any trace of a snake when I cut it."

"You're really brave. Snake grass is extremely attractive to snakes. Once the scent is released after you cut it, they'll chase after you relentlessly. You're too reckless."

Chang Dongning showed a good attitude in admitting his mistake: "I was confused at the time and made the wrong judgment."

If she didn't have a backup plan, she wouldn't have dared to act rashly.

"I'll report the rest to my superiors. This gathering point probably won't be open for the time being. You should find another gathering point."

Chang Dongning sighed. The oak tree area had never been open to the public, and too many people were going to the peanut area, so she didn't want to go. Now there was another collection point she couldn't go to.

"Hey, I'm not taking the shuttle bus tomorrow. I'll just wander around the safe zone."

Zhang Hao couldn't help but chuckle. This Miss Chang, you could say she's unlucky, she always manages to create some kind of surprise, but you could also say she's lucky, she always has some thrilling experiences, like that colorful chicken last time, she was the only one who got injured during the entire mission.

"That works too. There are daily patrols near the safe zone, so the safety level is higher. By the way, do you sell your snake-shaped grass leaves?"

"Sell it, this stuff doesn't taste good." Chang Dongning nodded. Just because it's edible doesn't mean it tastes good. Snake-shaped grass has a fishy smell, which becomes more pronounced after cooking.

"It's more cost-effective to sell this stuff for medicinal purposes."

A piece of snake-shaped grass, about half an adult's arm's length, sold for 120 points.

Back home, Chang Dongning first washed a few of the colorful berries: "Xuanxuan, eat some fruit first, Mom will cook now."

"Mom, eat first." Chang Xuan held up his small bowl, insisting that his mother eat first.

Actually, Chang Dongning had already eaten several while the baby was being washed, but she wouldn't let the child's good intentions go to waste.

"Okay." She took two pieces from the small bowl and popped them into her mouth. "Alright, Mom's going to cook now. You can have the rest."

These berries taste good, are juicy, and have a sweet and sour flavor. However, due to radiation, they have a faint rubbery smell, which becomes more pronounced at higher radiation levels.

The people of the wasteland have become accustomed to the smell of radiation.

After eating leafy greens and chicken for several days, it was time for a change of pace. Chang Dongning took out a low-radiation potato, sliced ​​most of it to prepare stir-fried potato slices, and set aside a small portion to make mashed potatoes.

She wasn't particularly talented at cooking, and her dishes were quite ordinary. But the person eating her food now was the naive and unsophisticated Xiao Changxuan. In his eyes, everything his mother cooked was novel and delicious.

The mashed potatoes, in particular, were so good that the kids almost licked the plate clean.

"You love it? Mom will make it for you again tomorrow."

"Okay, thank you, Mom. Mom is the best."

Since watching the cartoon, Xiao Changxuan has developed a new vocabulary.

"Good, good, good, our Xuanxuan is the best baby too." Chang Dongning looked at the rosy-cheeked child with a smile, feeling a great sense of accomplishment in raising him.

I just don't know when I'll be able to gain some weight!

Put the remaining potato slices into the refrigerator, and soak the previously dried wood ear mushrooms in water.

Before going to bed, she set her alarm clock an hour later so she wouldn't have to rush to catch the bus tomorrow. She decided to reward herself with an extra hour of sleep.

"Mommy, can I talk to Xuanxuan again tomorrow?"

"Sure, when haven't I talked to you?" Chang Dongning replied casually, fiddling with the projection screen on his watch.

"That's not how you say it, that's what you mean."

Chang Dongning turned her head and watched him tap his wristwatch with his finger.

"Oh, is it a call at noon? Mom isn't sure either. If I have time, I'll call you, okay?" Chang Dongning answered earnestly. She felt that she should keep her promise to her child, but there could be many unexpected situations while collecting data in the field, and she wasn't sure if she would always be available and have a good signal.

In principle, the area near a safe zone is within signal coverage, but there are too many unexpected situations in this world, and there are many places where there is no signal.

"Okay." She leaned over and kissed her mother's cheek. After the kiss, she felt embarrassed and covered her face with her hands.
